Welcome to ESSA Foundation Academies Trust

I’m Andrew Cooper and I am the Chief Executive Officer of The Essa Foundation Academies Trust. I am incredibly proud to lead a team of passionate, dedicated and talented staff and I feel privileged to be playing a big part in the future success of local children from nursery to the age of 16.

What's great about our family of schools is that we can be with a child every step of the way, from teaching them to tie their shoe laces right through to congratulating them on their GCSE results and their future plans. That puts us in a unique position; it’s also a tremendous responsibility. I hope you will share my excitement and optimism about what we can achieve by working together and helping each child to reach their full potential.
